Moneybaggins and Sylly’s Holiday Gift List 2009
Mr. Moneybaggins. Ironforge, 09.
Forward:
In the last 24 hours I have emptied completely the personal bank, guild bank tab, knapsacks, duffels, backpack and wallet of one Mr. Moneybaggins, Gnome Banker, Khadgar-Alliance. I depleted in one moton his carefully laid aside stores, built up since just about 10 days before Hallow’s End.
There’s some irony in the fact that he [...]
Stand By…
The future of the blog here is, admittedly, quite uncertain at the moment. I’m deep in the interview process of two different jobs. Either of them would be great for my family, but would probably mean death to the blog, as either of them would require of me a one way commute of at least [...]
This Just In…
Race changes have gone live! Druids!!! Do you have any idea what this means? This means…
yea.
Absolutely nothing to us. Sorry bout that.
=P
This is really just a quick post to check in with my readers to say I’m thinking about you out there. I’ve been preparing for a very significant job interview all week and have [...]
Up in the Air. Resto changes in 3.3
I haven’t posted yet about the new PTR build that went up yesterday and so radically changes our Gift of the Earth Mother talent so that it will give us 2,4,6,8,10% improved haste rather than the current version, which reduces the base global cooldown on Rejuvenation, Lifebloom and Wild Growth by 20%. I’ve been aware [...]
Patch 3.2.2 – What have you done for me lately?
So 3.2.2. is here today. Yay? I suppose that I should just be happy that they’re leaving us well enough alone for the moment, but I’m not sure that I am. I’m not thrilled with where Restos are at at the moment. It appears that we can stay competitive with other healers, which is nothing [...]
Terribad
Last night I was full of fail. Not just fail around the edges. Fail pervasive. Fail massive. Fail epic. Total fail.
Here are the factors that contributed to my complete and utter chock-fullery of fail:
In Spite of Ourselves
I’m nothing if not sympatico with Shooties Luckyman, my fellow Khadgar transplant from Duskwood’s gloomy shores. We share a good many tastes and opinions in common, high among them our taste in music. I asked him to send me some music that I may not have heard but that he thought I might like. Among [...]
Dispatch from Limbo
No raids again this week. Le sigh. My new computer has met with a delay in production that has postponed its arrival until 15 September latest if you believe Dell, which I do not. Not necessarily.
Playing very little, which absolutely has its advantages. My house is the kind of clean that makes me proud to [...]
When things just don’t look right around here
don’t panic.
I found out that the hack on my site was in my theme. Now, I could just get rid of all those theme files and reinstall the same theme, except it originally had some things I didn’t like going on, which were changed by a friend and I don’t know how to preserve the [...]
New Races, New Skins
I saw in a blue post somewhere yesterday that the druids who will be joining us from the Troll and Worgen races will have their own skins for druid forms, and thank goodness for it. I just wouldn’t feel right looking the same as a troll or a dog-boy when shape shifted. Would you? I [...]
